The Ngurrara and Ngururrpa are overlapping groupings of Aboriginal Australian peoples of the Great Sandy Desert, in the central Pilbara and southern Kimberley regions of Western Australia.
[2] In Kogolo v Western Australia (2007) the Ngurrara won recognition of their native title rights to 76,000 square kilometres (29,000 sq mi).
[5] They presented their case by drawing a large painting of their land, Ngurrara,[6] inscribed with figures from their mythological history associated with various points.
[9] Helicopter Tjungarrayi and Ors on behalf of the Ngurra Kayanta People v The State of Western Australia (2012) and Bobby West & Anor v State of Western Australia (2015), jointly known as the Ngurra Kayanta claim, was determined in 2016/7, granting native title over an area of 19,574.1497 square kilometres (7,557.6215 sq mi) in the Great Sandy Desert north of Karratha.
[10] Ngururrpa is the name used for a native title claim to land in the Great Sandy Desert, nearer the border with the Northern Territory.
